Mostly combat , and PVP. But sometimes it takes so long to get to where you need to be or sometimes these roams just take too long. I'm older, Married, own a home and a dog. I have a real life and responsibility to worry about. I guess im just trying to figure out my best use of time. 
Older? wtf is older?
We are playing a video game.

We are playing a video game. Older for me would be 30+. But this is a video game like no other. I can't really play other games much. Too soft and fluffy.
I started playing when i was 38, i have been at it over 10 years.
I have several ex wives, wife, passel of kids, dogs, cats, am a grand pa, and I run a company which is 40 miles from my house....where i have to commute through Houston.
Granted I have not been on for two weeks due to re-writing a QMS for ISO 9001 and SAR's for my company, i still find time to play. It does not require hours on end. Once you have it squared away you can maximize your game play if you just focus on what you want to do. |

ISO 9001 - you end up in a padded cell yet? Will they let you play Eve from there?
My staff brings me brownies....not sure what is in them, but by 15:00 i am feeling pretty damn good. |

EVE does tend to ruin some of us for other games. I have tried many other games, but the fact that they are so 'forgiving' (ie worst thing that happens in many games when you die is a bit of a walk back to where you died lol) means they don't have the same emotional impact on me that EVE does.
This was my first online game.
everything i look at now just sucks balls. |
